The top winery in Australia has been revealed and it’s in the Hunter Valley! 

Brokenwood Wines has been crowned Winery of the Year at the prestigious Halliday Wine Companion Awards, one of the most respected honours in Australian wine. From unique tasting pods to a Terrace Wine Bar and The Wood Restaurant, the Brokenwood Wines cellar door offers excellent wine, food and service in a fun and relaxed atmosphere that echoes their philosophy of “enjoy great wine and have fun”.

Plus, at the 2025 Hunter Valley Wine Show sixteen wineries were awarded trophies across sparkling, semillon, shiraz, chardonnay, verdelho, rose, shiraz pinot noir, vermentino and fiano showing the quality and breadth of Hunter Valley wine. So wine lovers, there has never been a better time to visit.

The region is buzzing with new must-try restaurants, a winery opening and a 5-star luxury stay opening their doors. Plus, with the change of season we are ushering in a new range of exciting spring events. So whether you’re visiting for a spring wine and food festival, a bucket-list experience, to try the new trophy wines or a Father’s Day feast we look forward to seeing you soon in Wine Country.
